Envelope System 2.0

Ok, my envelope system was working just fine except for one thing. It was too big. There are times when I need to have a few envelopes on me. I wanted something to fit in my purse(on the rare occasion I go shopping with no kids and no diaper bag). I found the perfect thing at Walmart for under $4.

I don’t care much for the color, or the fact that it is see through, but it was the right size. There are bigger ones for the same price that come in more neutral tones, black, gray, etc. But they would not fit in my purse, so hot pink it was.
It came with tabs that have the month on them, but the other side was blank, so I used that to write my categories on.
It opens up really nicely, there is a lot of room in there!

I realize that there are no real envelopes now, but I’m still calling it my envelope system.

  1. Hi,

    I came across your blog through a blog search. I LOVE this envelope system!! I have been looking for something just like this.

    I realize every Wal Mart is different, but in what area did you find this? School supplies? Office? What is in their planners section?? Do you think they would even still carry it?

    Any info would be great!

    You can email me back at the above email (keurena@yahoo.com)

    Thank you!

    Kelly
